Cisco charges separately for each security module. For example, it charges $35K (US list price) for its firewall security module, $30K for IDS/IPS module, and does not publish a price for its VPN-IPSec module.

This slide compares the US list price of the FortiGate-ONE software on the HP ProCurve zl module with other competitors. The cost of the blade is just one component to the overall cost of building up a complete chassis to achieve the performance numbers cited in the table. For example, the Juniper performance listed is for a single blade when deployed with network processing card, services processing card, and routing engine in chassis. Total cost ~$100K
